BULLETIN: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN

A-Block (1:43) BULLETIN: Trump posts "If you go after me, I'm coming after you!" almost exactly 24 hours after Judge Moxila A. Upadhyaya warned him: "Mr. Trump. I ask you to listen carefully to the conditions. Your most important condition of release is that you not commit a state, federal or local offense. If so, your release may be revoked. I want to remind you it is a crime to intimidate a witness, or retaliate against anyone for providing information about your case to the prosecution.” She warned him it was also a crime "to influence a juror or threaten or attempt to bribe a witness or any other person who may have information about your case, or to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice. Do you understand these warnings, sir?”

He has violated her warnings four times in nine words and the judge has no choice but to revoke his terms of release and detain him until trial. 

And that he did NOT mention specific names makes it worse, because in this message he is intimidating ALL witnesses, ALL judges, ALL prosecutors, ALL prosecutors' bosses, and ALL of us.

Trump is a remorseless, irredeemable terrorist - the worst this country has ever faced. And this can stop now - and it must stop now.

Lock. Him. Up.

B-Block (13:58) SPECIAL COMMENT: In a tradition as old as the nation itself, Trump has been indicted. The true headline is the accelerated timeline the Judge imposes. There can be no question they intend to begin this trial not just before the election but WELL before the election.

B-Block (31:44) IN SPORTS: The shut-up-and-dribble crowd forgets to shut up. The DeVos-owned NBA Orlando Magic donates $50,000 to a campaign arm of the racist, homophobic Ron DeSantis and the team players and ALL the NBA players rightfully go nuts. And Tiger Woods joins the PGA Board: will he save us from the Saudi takeover of golf, or collaborate with those who want to see The Prince Mohammed Bin Salman Masters? (33:45) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Trump whore Mark Levin with an embarrassing flub, Tampa discovers "Dumpster Fire" is not always just a metaphor, and General Michael Flynn was trying to tweet something AGAINST child trafficking but wound up tweeting something that sounds like it's FOR child trafficking. We think that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. At
four sixteen pm Eastern daylight time, Friday afternoon, Donald Trump

(00:26):
threatened witnesses, prosecutors, the entirety of the United States government,
and everyone who lives here. Trump's pre trial release must
be immediately revoked by Judge Maxilla APAEDII, and he must
be detained until the trial begins. If you go after me,
Trump has written on the Truth social website he owns,

(00:49):
I'm coming after you. He was told twenty four hours earlier,
almost to the minute, not to do this, not to threaten,
not to try to influence, not It was a condition
of his release without bail. He has now violated it.
That release must be revoked and revoked immediately. And this madness,

(01:12):
this endless cycle of Trump getting away with crimes and
deceit and dishonesty and cheating and fomenting violence, and above
all else, of threatening people, this endless cycle must end.
That if it means putting them away without bail and
arresting every one of his cultists who tries to retaliate
or to free him or to threaten us, so be

(01:36):
it anyone else in this nation. In a situation parallel
to Trump's, who stated in any public forum while out
on release, if you go after me, I'm coming after
you would have been in jail before sunset. Trump is
right about one thing, and one thing only. There are

(01:58):
two tears of justice in America. One for him, which
treats this mindless, venomous, grasping, consuming, destroying terrorists with kid gloves,
as if so doing would somehow end the threat. He
and his scum represent one tier of justice for Trump,

(02:18):
in which the rest of us have to walk on
eggshells for day after day and year after year, and
another tier for every other American. The hesitant will note
that in those nine words there are no names mentioned.
It would have been better for Trump if he had

(02:41):
mentioned names, because this threat, not being directed at Jack Smith,
or at Joe Biden, or at Mark Meadows, is thus
directed at all of them, at every potential witness, at
every judge, at every prosecutor, at every prosecutor's boss, at

(03:02):
the attorney general, at the attorney general's boss, the president.
Because this time Trump has slipped. This is not his
usual dog whistle for stochastic terrorism on his behalf, one
of his who will rid me of this meddlesome priest
posts or statements designed to make somebody else do something

(03:25):
designed to make one of his cultists say, if I
try to break into Obama's house, it will please the Master.
This is a direct threat from him to anybody who
comes after him, and, in his paranoia addled mind, that
is not just Smith or Garland or Alvin Bragg or

(03:48):
Fannie Willis or Judge Chutkin or Judge Opa DII or
Mike Pence or anyone else whose name is now publicly
connected to his prosecution. In Trump's diseased mind, anybody who
comes after him includes me and you. These words were

(04:09):
spoken at the DC Courthouse Thursday afternoon by Judge Opah DII. Quote,
mister Trump, I ask you to listen carefully to the conditions.
Your most important condition of release is that you not
commit a state, federal, or local offense. If so, your

(04:32):
release may be revoked. The judge said that twenty four
hours before he committed new federal offenses. I want to
remind you it is a crime to intimidate a witness,
she said, twenty four hours before he intimidated all the witnesses.

(04:52):
Quote or retaliate against anyone for providing information about your
case to the prosecution, she said, twenty four hours before
he retaliated against everyone for providing informa about his case
to the prosecution. She warned him, it was also a
crime quote to influence a juror, or threaten or attempt

(05:12):
to bribe a witness or any other person who may
have information about your case, twenty four hours before he
committed the crime of threatening everyone. It is also a crime,
the judge added, quote to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice,

(05:34):
before he committed the crime of obstructing the administration of justice.
Do you understand these warnings? Sir Trump made his head
nod forward as if he were saying yes. And then
he went home. And then he waited almost exactly one day,

(05:58):
and then he began to personally threaten, to personally retaliate,
to personally intimidate, to personally terrorize everyone involved in the
case and all of the rest of us who will
not bow to him. Because Donald John Trump is a terrorist,

(06:24):
the most dangerous terrorist in this nation today and the
most dangerous terrorist in this nation's history. It is the
terrorism of bullying witnesses, of menacing prosecutors, of intimidating judges,
of threatening presidents, of imperiling every member of this society.
And it can stop now. The terrorist Trump can be

(06:49):
stopped now. He was warned, He claimed he understood the warning.
He spat on the warning. He literally could only stop
himself for twenty four hours before violating the warning and
urinating on the American system of justice. It took Trump
only twenty four hours to revert to terrorism, to the

(07:13):
threat of violence to achieve political ends, the threat with
which he has tortured this nation for eight years. It
is now nearly three years since Senator Mitt Romney issued
a statement in all caps condemning the quote vile, vituperative,
hate filled morass that is unbecoming of any free nation,

(07:36):
and then assailing all of our great political leaders of
twenty twenty Trump, the Democrats launching blistering attacks. In reply,
Pelosi tearing up quote the State of the Union speech
on national television, Keith Alriman calls the president a terrorist unquote.
Three years since Mitt Romney mocked me for calling Trump

(07:57):
a terrorist, and eighty five days after he issued that
statement and made that mocking gesture, Romney and all of
the other senators of the United States of America and
all the representatives in Congress ran for their lives as
a Trump directed mob of terrorists tried to sap the

(08:19):
Capitol and kill them all. And when the former Capitol
police officer Michael Fannone, who helped push them back, compared
the arraignment of Trump on Thursday to the killing of
Osama bin Laden and said Trump is a terrorist who
committed horrific acts against the American people. The fascist attacked
Fennone when the only thing Fannone got wrong is the

(08:42):
relative danger. Bin Laden killed our friends and relatives and
ruined thousands of lives. Trump continues to try to kill
all of free America and ruin all of our lives.
If you go after me, I'm coming after you. Well,

(09:02):
we are going after We are going after you. We
are prosecuting you, we are convicting you, and we are
going to sit and watch carefully as you rot in
prison and die there. And that terminal prison sentence, after
that social media threat to all of us, to the

(09:23):
fundaments of our society, that terminal prison sentence for Donald
John Trump should begin today. Judge APAEDII, you set the terms,
you warned him. You asked him if he understood. He
said he understood with a gesture. He waited twenty four

(09:45):
hours and violated your terms four different ways in just
nine words. You have no choice here. American democracy depends
on you enforcing the law and enforcing your own warning
against the terrorist scum. Revoke the terms of Donald Trump's

(10:10):
pre trial release and incarcerate him immediately. He is a
terrorist and keeps proudly warning you and me and all
of America. I am a terrorist. I will avenge myself
on you. I am your retribution. If you go after me,
I'm coming after you. Stop him, Stop him now, stop

(10:33):
him in his tracks, Lock him up. The rest of
this special weekend bullet and edition of Countdown is reprised
from Friday's regular episode of this series. If you have

(10:55):
heard that, there is no need to listen to again
unless you really feel the need for the comic relief
of hearing me again saying I'm so indicted. Thank you.

(11:19):
The former President of the United States of America, Donald
John Trump, has been indicted by the United States of
America on a series of felony charges, and he has
pleaded not guilty in federal court. Wait who wrote this
We did this story already, I swear last month, six

(11:40):
weeks ago. Maybe we did this can I got a
producer in here. It's some quality control so we don't
get out of date scripts again. Trump indicted. We did
this story already, Bill Murray, Saturday Night Live, Death of
Pope John Paul the First, nineteen seventy eight. Sorry, I

(12:02):
had to. There's a point to this coming up. First.
There are two headlines, actual headlines from this one substantial
one symbolic, and the substantial one is really substantial. The
timeline that the court imposed and imposed is the exact word.
They hit Trump over the effing head with it. You've

(12:23):
heard that phrase from court's rocket docket. The judge demanded
a brief from Jack Smith's office proposing a trial date
and its estimate of how long the trial will take,
and she wants it Thursday, and then Trump's lawyers have
to file a response to that the Thursday after that,
the seventeenth, and the presiding jurist, the Judge roy Bean

(12:45):
of the January sixth Insurrection, Tanya Chutkin. We'll pick the
trial date at ten am August twenty eighth. That's three
weeks from Monday. Rocket docket. This is the Saturn five
of schedules, the Luna thirteen of law, the javel and
rocket of there is prudence. Seriously, there is no doubt,

(13:09):
no doubt whatsoever that Smith and maybe even Merrick Garland
have realized they are working against the clock and that
democracy is working against the clock, and that it is
imperative to put him on trial not just before the election,
but well before the election. That it was intriguing to
see one of the CNN analysts who has had pretty

(13:29):
good sources on this, I worked with her at NBC,
Jamie Gangel, quote her contacts as uniformly identifying the takeaway
of indictment day as how pared down and concise this
case against Trump is compared to the now forty counts
in Florida, and they all took the same guess as

(13:50):
to why to give the judge and any other judges
Trump tries to drag in to mess up the timeline.
Absolutely no excuse to not start this trial asap, maybe
even before the first of the year. We can have
no idea if Garland or Smith, or Trump or anybody
else saw the polling on this by Reuter's ipsos that

(14:12):
came out yesterday, but it is intriguing, if not conclusive.
Forty five percent of Republicans say they would not vote
for Trump if he has been quote convicted of a
felony crime by a jury. Forty five percent of Republicans.
I'll caveat that one they say that now, and two

(14:34):
they may be saying that now because the assumption on
the right is that Trump canstall all these trials indefinitely.
I really wonder if the number would look different if
the polling was done after this Justice Express docket had
been released. There was considerable reporting from inside the Prettyman
Courthouse that Trump looked really honked off about something yesterday,

(14:55):
especially compared to his demeanor at the Florida arraignment. And
a really good guess would be this the court dates
the SpaceX of sentencing. That was the substantial headline, the
symbolic one. That photo of Trump at the airport for
the return flight to Bedminster, New York, times alone, getting

(15:20):
out of just another suv, looking down carrying his own umbrella,
with a stunned expression on his saggy face and looking
like a sack of wet spit, and his near incoherence
in his brief statement unable to focus on himself for

(15:42):
the first time in his life, and instead going off
on worldwide television about how horrible the graffiti was in Washington,
and knowing he had blown it, suddenly remembering he was
supposed to say, this is a persecution of a political opponent.
This was never supposed to happen to America, by which,

(16:04):
of course he meant this was never supposed to happen
to him in America because he ran on persecuting his
political opponent. In twenty sixteen, he told Hillary Clinton to
her face at a debate that he would put her
in prison, and then as president, he tried to get
the president of Ukraine to fabricate evidence with which to
persecute Joe Biden, something his goblins on Capitol Hill like

(16:25):
Jamie Comer and Kevin McCarthy are still trying to do.
And we're supposed to forget that. And for once, with
cameras rolling, Trump could not pull off his only trick
being martyred Trump or fearless Trump or vengeful Trump or
something Trump. He came off as damp, limp chump Trump.

(16:48):
And kudos to CNN and MSNBC, among other networks, for
cutting away from the live feed from the tarmac as
dementia Jay started to talk. Somehow, somebody learns something. BBC
News sadly wereld Why did not they carried that nonsense live.
On the other hand, CNN also had a reporter in

(17:10):
a car chasing the Trump motorcade and who were duly
rewarded with the audio or the video going out on
every hit from the correspondent and the rest of the
time they got a shot of the car right ahead
of them. That Trump also wasn't in notes from inside
the Prettyman Courthouse. And there are competing reports as to

(17:31):
who stared Daggers at home, and in fact whether Daggers
were even stared. While The New York Times insisted Trump
never made eye contact with Jack Smith's, CNN reported Smith
stared at Trump or at least won the staring contest.
ABC reported that quote Trump could be seen staring right
towards Smith, knocking his clasped hands on the table in

(17:52):
a tense way. It's not really news, of course, it
was a tense way. He's a psychopath. They get tents
when the people who can destroy them are not scared
away by their loud noises. Also, Trump pleaded not guilty
in his own voice, was asked to confirm he understood
he had the right to remain silent, claimed he understood that.

(18:14):
He doesn't understand that, And probably the only unexpected development
of the whole day came in the traditional barrage of
self pitying, self martyring social media posts by Trump in
which he spelled the word stolen correctly sto just one
l e M. World financial markets crashed due to the

(18:37):
resultant uncertainly among investors that there was anything on this
earth that could still rely on two associated headlines. He
may be only unindicted co conspirator number two, but he's
still unindicted sucker number one. John Eastman still doesn't get it.
As my old friend Steve Bogart's dad said to Mary Astor,

(19:01):
you're taking the fall. Eastman's lawyer repeats, he's not flipping
and he's not guilty of anything, and they are sending
prosecutors a memo. Oh good, another Eastman memo arguing that
Eastman was acting, quote as an attorney advising a client
that the advice was lawful and that Eastman should not

(19:22):
be indicted. Somebody needs to wake them up and remind
them Trump's argument is that he was listening to that
advice and that he's not guilty because Eastman is the
other note. If you were again disappointed by the lack
of a mug shot of the defendant, good news everyone.
Fulton County Sheriff Patrick Lebat has told The New York

(19:44):
Times that if Trump is indicted in Georgia, he would
get treatment identical to any other suspect being booked. Quote
unless someone tells me differently, the sheriff said, he plans
to follow normal practices. We'll have mugshots ready for you.
Uh can I get one in a SI thirty eight

(20:05):
by seven hundred and forty four feet big picture. Year
ago first episode of this series, I suggested that the
House January sixth Committee obviously served a real time purpose,
but that ultimately didn't matter even if it had really
only been created exclusively for an audience of one Merck Garland.

(20:29):
Sure enough, huge traffic yesterday on air and online about
the Liz Cheney Committee, which is how it will be remembered.
Even though she was not the chair. Benny Thompson was.
All of it was deserved praise for the efforts and
the straight line that history will draw between what it
did and yesterday's indictments, and some of it went almost
shockingly further than that Congressman Brendan Boyle of Philadelphia, who

(20:53):
has been in the House exactly two hundred and fourteen
days letter rip quote, thank you, Speaker Pelosi for creating
the House January sixth committee. If it were just up
to the week and feckless Merrick Garland and Lisa Monaco
than today would have never happened. It's only shocking because

(21:15):
it's true, and that brings up another point. If you're
not old enough to appreciate this, I apologize. But from
the day John Glenn went up in Friendship seven when
I was three, until the night when I was ten
when Neil Armstrong got Moondust all over that nice clean
spacesuit of his, there was a building crescendo of excitement

(21:37):
over the years as we got closer and closer to
the Moon launch and the landing, and then I just
had to go look up online who was on the
mission between Armstrong and Aldron and Collins on Apollo eleven
that landed on the Moon and got out, and Lovell,
Hayes and Swigert driving home the junk bus that was thirteen.

(22:01):
I had no memory of Apollo twelve. That deflation of
the excitement was, by all accounts universal in this country.
And thus it is sadly with Trump indictments. The silliness
of the opening of this episode notwithstanding, there was a
point to it as valuable, essential as yesterday was to

(22:22):
our declining chances of preserving representative government in this country.
There was an astounding sense of anti climax. We've seen
this before. This time there weren't even any interesting looking
Trump lunatics outside and him, as I said before, Wow,
way to underdeliver. Donnie got a roll of stamps and

(22:43):
mail it in. That's because obviously it is time to
get off the pot and put him in the can.
I could not be happier that the judges in Washington
have decided to kick his ask with this high speed calendar.
But the secret value to the high speed calendar is
it gives us frequent changes to the narrative and the
excitement levels to carry us through to the next hearing.

(23:06):
And we need that as a nation to fight back
against Trump till the next hearing or maybe the next indictment. Fani,
maybe the next indictment Jack because as repetitive as some
of these are as spectacle, we want him so indicted
that he can't pass gas without violating a court order.
We want him so indicted. Wait, so indicted, so indicted.

(23:35):
I feel a song coming on. Oh, Nancy, I'm so.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Indicted, and I just can't fight it. I'm about to
go to tail in America likes it. I'm so indicted.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
My DEFENSEI they're tightened, and I know, I know the
unindicted co conspirators can bite it it.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Q Nancy Faust. We need to put out an album,
not of music. I would like to point out that
in a one two week span, I anchored a presidential
inauguration and the super Bowl. There are related non Trump

(24:27):
headlines to duck in here and first on our quick
trip to Shelbyville and the other America, and the lead
story last night at the Pretty Good Barometer, that is
the Washington Examiner, not the Trump indictment, not even the
Devon Archer transcript, which they seem to have dismissed as
the dud. It was no this quote. Youngkin would beat

(24:49):
Biden in Virginia. New poll finds Youngkin would beat Biden
in Virginia. Newpole finds if that name does not ring
a bell, Youngkin is the governor of Virginia, who may
yet step into the GOP race once they send in
DeSantis's mommy to go get him and bring him home,
which could be today. Ish quote came out wednesday, I guess,

(25:12):
but it only started a steamroll yesterday. DeSantis cannot help
himself and cannot stop himself, and cannot save himself. On
a tour of New Hampshire, he issued the now standard
I ensure the woke agenda ends up and then does
been in history. But then he added something new, And
apparently this is why they have him keep going back
to woke, woke, this, woke that, because when he tries

(25:34):
something else, this happens. As to federal bureaucracy and federal bureaucrats,
Desantus said, quote, We're going to start slitting throats on
day one. You realize how bad that is, even for
fascists who relish a good execution metaphor, that's just way
too gory. That's how bad it is. Be careful, Ronda,

(25:58):
the throat you slit may just have been your own.
And lastly, doctor Cornell West pissing away a career of
service to this nation by running on the let's elect
Trump Anyway platform turns out to be just a little
bit behind on the old taxes, just five one hundred

(26:21):
and forty three thousand dollars. The Daily Beast could get
no comment out of West or his current campaign manager,
Jill Stein. No, I'm not kidding. Also of interest here,
unless you saw this tweet, you will never, never, in

(26:43):
a million years, correctly guess which conservative tweeted one of
the most horrifying Freudian slips of all time. Quote, I
highly encourage you to attend our child trafficking training in Sarasota. God,

(27:05):
that's next. This is countdown.

Speaker 4 (27:09):
This is countdown with Keith Olberman, my crazy friend. This
is Sports Senate. Wait, check that not anymore. This is

(27:34):
countdown with Keith Olberman in sports Man. Are sports people
owning themselves lately in droves? In one case, it's folks
from the usual shut up and dribble crowd. Basketball's Orlando Magic,
owned by members of the infamous Devas family, taking huge
heat from many quarters because the franchise donated fifty thousand dollars.

(27:58):
The Czech says, Orlando Magic on it the donation was
to an arm of the Ron DeSantis campaign, right after
DeSantis's latest anti LGBTQ actions and contemporaneous with DeSantis's imbecilic
remarks about how slavery taught the slaves useful skills like blacksmithing.

(28:19):
The Magic then tried to claim that the team was
not donating to the campaign, but merely as a business
to the state of Florida. Then ownership claimed the check
was written before DeSantis had announced he was running, which
is a distinction without a difference, but also doesn't line
up with the date on the check. And now the
Orlando Magic have been sand blasted by the National Basketball

(28:42):
Players Association quote. NBA governors, players and personnel have the
right to express their personal political views, including through donations
and statements the union rights and a press release. However,
if contributions are made on behalf of an entire team
using money earned through the labor of its employees, it
is incumbent upon the team governors to consider these values

(29:06):
and perspectives of staff and players. The Magic's donation does
not represent player support for the recipient unquote, a very
salient point. What the NBAPA should do now, of course,
is donate some equal or larger amount to the Biden campaign,
or one of the groups fighting DeSantis's tyranny in Florida,

(29:28):
or I don't know, buy fifty thousand dollars worth of
band books and hit them out to kids or anybody
really and do it on behalf of the Orlando magic,
the players. And meanwhile, in golf, with the PGA Tour
selling out the sport in this country, so the Saudis
can take it over completely and sportswash it's blood money

(29:51):
at events like the US Open and the Masters, that
would be the Prince Muhammad bin Salman Masters. Guess who
has been added to the PGA Tour policy board. Tiger
would for Tiger Woods. This is either a chance to
redeem his increasingly sketchy reputation or him making a complete

(30:14):
sellout of himself. We will see. Tiger Woods was one
of the leading opponents of the Saudi Trump Live Golf Tour,
which bought the PGA in June and which has ever
since pretended that this is a partnership or a merger
with Woods. On the PGA board, actual players, actual golfers
now outnumber the non playing directors six to five, with

(30:35):
the twelfth member being the PGA's president. What it sounds
like is Tiger Woods to the rescue, stopping this farce
which was engineered in large part by the PGA Commissioner J. Monahan.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
However, the first statement by Tiger Woods, in fact his
first statement since the Saudis bought the PGA, Tiger praised
Commissioner J. Monahan, quote, we look forward to being at
the table with him to make the right decisions for
the future of the game. He has my confidence moving

(31:08):
forward with these changes. Uh oh, stell ahead on Countdown
Fridays with Thurber and with the latest arraignment of Donald Trump.

(31:31):
Collect the whole series. There can be no better story
to read you than Thurber's nostre damas like writing of
a story that's basically about Trump fifteen years before Trump
was born. The greatest man in the world. Coming up first,
It's time for the daily roundup of the miss grants,

(31:52):
morons and Dunning Kruger effects specimens who constitute today's worst
persons in the world. The Bronze falsetto voiced Fox quote
news unquote, screeching winer Mark Levin one of the worst
of the whores, who will say or claim anything to
defend Trump, an unbelievably damaging figure even in the right

(32:13):
wing media. Bottomless pit of Puss. Levin's iron now is
directed at Bill barr. He's trying to claim the former
attorney general quote cooperated with Jack Smith's office, whatever that means.
Levin then wrote barr as quote all over TV like
a rectile dysfunction commercials, And on a day when Trump

(32:35):
finally spelled stolen correctly, Levin misspelled dysfunction the disease, a
rectile dysfunction that has a Y. He spelled it with
an I, which tells you everything you need to know
about Mark Levin. The runners up the residents of Tampa, Florida. Hello,

(32:56):
not all of them, mind you, But there is an
epidemic there of what might be the worst thing you
could have an epidemic of, other than the rats we
have here in the New York City area. The worst thing, though,
besides rats, that you could have an epidemic of, from
a civic pride and tourism standpoint, dumpster fires. In the

(33:17):
last year, Tampa has had more than twelve hundred dumpster fires,
not metaphorical dumpster fires, not symbolic dumpster fires. Not political
dumpster fires, not sports dumpster fires. Tampa dumpsters catching fire.

(33:38):
What's worse. This year there have been three so called
hot load dumpster fires in which the dumpsters catch fire
spontaneously because people have just thrown away with the regular trash,
things like lithium ion batteries and tanks of propane and electronics,
and they just blowed up. They blowed up good, they

(33:59):
blowed up real good. So welcome to Tampa City of
dumpster fire. Yes, but our winner. And yes there is
a segue here, General Michael Flynn. If you already thought
he was nuts, you ain't seen nothing yet. As you know,
Flynn went full QAnon and Pizzagate, and he sees invisible devils.

(34:21):
He did this a long time ago, so what he
was trying to tweet was understandable in the context of
his various manias. But the wording was I mean, seriously, generally,
you need to see a psychotherapist as quickly as possible.
I mean Freudian slips. I'm quoting him here on a
retweet of a link to one of these Holy Rollers

(34:42):
conventions in Florida on August seventeenth. You're ready, General Michael
Flynn in public quote, I highly encourage you to attend
our child trafficking training in Sarasota. Unquote. I'll just read
that quote again. I highly encourage you, Flynn wrote to

(35:03):
attend our child old trafficking training in Sarasota. Boy Mike,
child trafficking training Flynn Today's worse Marsaid.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
And the world.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
I'm so indicted and I just can't fight it. I'm
about to go to tail in America. Lights it. I'm
so indicted.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
My defense are tightened, and I know, I know the
